Non-heart beating donation (NHBD) The Maastricht
classification
6
Maastricht classification for Non-heart beating
donation (NHBD)
Categories I and II are termed uncontrolled and
categories III to V are controlled. Category II
donors are patients who have had a witnessed
cardiac arrest outside hospital, have
cardiopulmonary resusciation by trained
paramedics commenced within 10 minutes but who
cannot be successfully resuscitated. Category
III donors are patients on intensive care units
with non-survivable injuries who have treatment
withdrawn

Ethical Issues in Organ Donation After
Circulatory DeathGroupe Hospitalier
Pitié-SalpêtrièreNovember 24, 2008
  • James L. Bernat, M.D.
  • Professor of Neurology and Medicine
  • Dartmouth Medical School
  • Hanover, New Hampshire USA

12
DCD Definition
  • Donation after circulatory death
  • Scheduled organ procurement from a patient
    declared dead by cessation of circulation and
    respiration after life-sustaining treatment has
    been withdrawn
  • Formerly called
  • Non-heart-beating organ donation
  • Organ donation after cardiac death
  • Organ donation after cardio-circulatory death

13
DCD Process
  • Ventilated patient in ICU with profound brain
    damage who is not brain dead but cannot recover
    neurologically
  • Family makes decision to withdraw LST based on
    prognosis and wishes of patient
  • Family expresses desire to donate organs after
    death with informed consent
  • Separate decisions to withdraw LST donate

14
DCD Process
  • Organ donation coordinator counsels family and
    makes arrangements to coordinate withdrawal of
    life-sustaining treatment and organ procurement
  • Alert procurement team
  • Schedule withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment
    in ICU or OR
  • Bernat JL, et al. Am J Transplant
    20066281-291.

15
DCD Process
  • CCS staff extubates patient
  • CCS staff provides usual palliative care with
    opioids and benzodiazepines
  • Await apnea and asystole
  • After 5 minutes of asystole, declare death
  • Procure organs kidneys, liver, others
  • 25 unsuccessful because no death lt 1 hour
  • Bernat JL, et al. Am J
    Transplant 20066281-291.

16
DCD History
  • U. of Pittsburgh protocol, 1992
  • National Academy of Sciences Institute of
    Medicine reports in 1997, 2000, 2006 endorse DCD
    and provide guidelines
  • In USA, encouraged by
  • DHHS
  • Joint Commission
  • Steinbrook R. N Engl J Med
    2007357209-213.

17
USA Deceased Organ Donors
9.8 of US deceased organ donors were DCD in 2007
18
New England Organ BankDeceased Organ Donors
25 of NEOB deceased organ donors were DCD in 2007
19
Kidneys comprised 74 of organs transplanted over
these four years
20
NEOB DCD Data
  • Since 1 January 2004, 216 DCD donors of 328
    attempted donations
  • 421 organs donated
  • 346 kidneys
  • 59 livers
  • 9 pancreases
  • Donor mean age 43.4 years

21
NEOB DCD Data
  • Causes of death
  • Anoxic brain injury 29
  • Traumatic brain injury 35
  • Stroke 29
  • Other 11

22
DCD Ethical Issues
  • Dead donor rule
  • Circulatory-respiratory criterion of death
  • Separation of withdrawal of LST from procurement
  • Palliative care during dying
  • Manipulation of living donor for organ
  • ECMO on organ donor
  • Procurement of hearts
  • Bernat JL. N Engl J Med
    2008359669-671.

23
Dead Donor Rule
  • Multi-organ donor first must be dead
  • It is unethical to kill the donor to procure
    organs even with donor consent
  • Some have suggested abandonment of the dead donor
    rule if
  • Patient consents for donation
  • Patient is beyond harm
  • Poor pubic policy because jeopardizes public
    confidence in physicians

24
Circulatory Criterion of Death
  • Irreversible cessation of circulation and
    ventilation
  • Two definitions of irreversible
  • Function cannot be reversed by present technology
    (irreversible)
  • Function will not reverse itself because no
    attempt will be made but possible (permanent)
  • Permanence is traditional standard

25
Irreversible vs Permanent in DCD
  • At 5 minutes of asytole, respiratory and cardiac
    functions are lost permanently
  • CPR will not be performed
  • Auto-resuscitation will not occur
  • Use of cardiopulmonary criterion in other
    hospital deaths requires permanence and not
    irreversibility
  • Bernat JL. J Clin Ethics
    200617122-132.

26
Death Determination in DCD
  • Permanence standard has been accepted implicitly
    by the medical profession
  • Permanence always produces incipient, rapid, and
    inevitable irreversibility
  • Its use is inconsequential in outcome
  • Removing organs does not cause death
  • Bernat JL. J Clin Ethics
    200617122-132.

27
Circulatory Criterion of Death
  • What duration of cessation of heartbeat shows
    irreversibility?
  • Pittsburgh Protocol 2 minutes
  • Institute of Medicine 5 minutes
  • Empirical data on auto-resuscitation
  • Organ damage from waiting longer
  • SCCM Ethics Committee standard is not lt 2 minutes
    or gt 5 minutes
  • Bernat JL, et al. Am J Transplant
    20066281-291.

28
The Problem Inherent in DCD
  • Is the patient truly dead after 5 minutes of
    asystole?
  • If patient could be resuscitated to point of
    measurable brain function, not dead
  • Supporters say its close enough to dead because
    patient will not auto-resuscitate and no CPR is
    planned
  • Bernat JL. J Clin Ethics
    200617122-132.

29
Separation of Medical Roles
  • Team declaring death must be totally separated
    from team procuring organs
  • Particularly important in DCD where CCS team is
    withdrawing LST
  • Decision to procure organs should not drive
    decision to withdraw LST
  • USA case of Dr. Hootan Roozrokh problems of lack
    of separation of roles
  • Bernat JL. N Engl J Med
    2008359669-671.

30
Organ Donor Treatment
  • Does palliative care of the donor contribute to
    the time of death?
  • Is it ethical to manipulate the living organ
    donor for the health of the organ?
  • IV phentolamine
  • ECMO catheters

31
Emerging Unresolved Issues
  • Variation among DCD protocols
  • Minimum duration of asystole for death
    declaration
  • Donor ECMO support
  • Cardiac procurement

32
Organ Donor ECMO
  • Extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation
  • Donor ECMO catheters inserted while alive
  • Deployed at moment death is declared
  • Improves organ function by reducing warm ischemic
    time
  • Retroactively negates donor death by preventing
    progression to brain destruction
  • Jackson A, et al. J Heart Lung
    Transplant 200827348-352.

33
DCD Organ Donor ECMO
  • University of Michigan protocol insert thoracic
    aorta occlusion balloon to block ECMO blood flow
    to thoracic organs, brain
  • Permits progressive brain infarction as if ECMO
    were not used
  • Acceptable because it avoids problem of
    retroactive negation of donor death
  • Magliocca JF et al. J Trauma
    2005581095-1102.

34
Heart Procurement in DCD
  • HRSA-sponsored protocol successful heart
    transplantation in 3 infants
  • Critics raised two questions
  • Justified to reduce asystole period to 75 sec?
  • Did use of donor heart negate the donors death
    determination by showing that loss of cardiac
    function was not irreversible ?
  • Boucek MM et al. N Engl J Med
    2008359709-714.

35
Heart Procurement in DCD
  • Death statute requires absence of circulatory not
    cardiac function
  • Once circulation has ceased permanently, donor
    patient is dead when brain is infarcted
  • Removal of heart and restarting it elsewhere has
    no impact on donor status
  • Therefore, does not affect death determination
  • Bernat JL. et al
    (in press).

36
Future Directions
  • Additional studies of auto-resuscitation
  • Better standardization of DCD protocols
  • Studies of physician DCD practice to identify
    causality between stopping LST and DCD
  • Expert consensus on controversial areas ECMO,
    cardiac procurement
  • HRSA committee meeting 15 December 2008
  • Bernat JL. et
    al (in press).

38
CHWs Position on Donation After Cardiac Death
  • Carol Bayley, Catholic Healthcare West

39
Old vs New
  • Old DCD
  • Death happened on its own terms
  • Organs recovered but sometimes not in good
    condition
  • New DCD
  • Organs recovered in better condition
  • Death is negotiated

40
Arguments in support of DCD
  • Organ donation saves lives
  • Pool of recipients has grown more quickly than
    pool of donors
  • 90,000 on waiting list 6,000 die each yr
  • DCD may honor pt/family wish
  • Family may find comfort in donation
  • Donation nurtures altruism
  • DCD supported by transplant community

41
Arguments opposing DCD
  • Conflict of interest
  • DCD manipulates definition of death
  • Pro literature first argued that Dead Donor Rule
    not violated now same authors argue that
    violation of DDR is justified.
  • Is it two, five or ten minutes?
  • Permanent and irreversible depends on intentions
    of those in OR

42
Arguments opposed, contd
  • Do No Harm
  • DCD procedures prior to taking organs may not be
    in the patients best interest. (Ex)
  • Sometimes it doesnt work
  • Patient is returned to floor to die
  • Families may be disappointed
  • Pressure to succeed strain on resources

43
Arguments Opposed, contd. Informed Consent
  • Families are not told that testing procedures may
    hasten death.
  • Families are not told that there is a ethical
    debateOPOs do not believe there IS ethical
    debate.
  • Substituted judgment difficult very few
    individuals understand what is involved in
    process. People with pink dot signed up for
    something different.

44
Camels nose under the tent
  • 15,00035,000 persons in PVS. Almost 2/3 of
    medical directors and neurologists think PVS
    patients appropriate for organ donation (1993)
  • Controlled suicidal donation
  • High C-fracture, conscious patients

45
Delicate Consensus on End of Life Care may be
jeopardized
  • Withdrawal of treatment is difficult
  • Some resist because they think we are trying to
    save money, or that the loved ones life is
    worthless
  • DCD could backfire, resulting in fewer donations
    overall

46
What is our duty?
  • Hold to CHWs policy of no DCD transfer when
    family requests.
  • Increase donations from brain dead patients
    (e.g., St Johns) increase number of organs
    recovered from each donor by following protocols
    and calling OPO promptly.

47
Moral(s) of the Story
  • Dying patients are not a means to anothers end,
    even a good end.
  • Some things take time. Birth takes time death
    takes time.
  • Patients are persons, not an assemblage of spare
    parts.

Euthanasia
  • Belgium Belgian Act on Euthanasia (May 28,
    2002)
  • Euthanasia is described as an act on purpose,
    performed by a third person, in order to end the
    life of a person who has requested for this act.
  • The patient is an adult or an emancipated minor,
    capable and conscious at the time of his / her
    request The request is made voluntarily, is well
    thought out and reiterated, and is not the result
    of outside pressure
  • The patient is in a hopeless medical condition
    and complains of constant and unbearable physical
    or mental pain which cannot be relieved

52
Euthanasia
  • Belgium Belgian Act on Euthanasia
  • If the person is not in the terminal phase of his
    illness, the 2 doctors must consult with a third
    doctor, either a psychiatrist or a specialist in
    the disease concerned.
  • At least one month must pass between the written
    request and carrying out the act
  • Every mercy killing must be reported to a federal
    commission that would regulate the practice and
    bring prosecutions where necessary.

Procedures
  • Extensive written informed consent of donor and
    relatives
  • Strict separation between euthanasie request -
    euthanasia procedure organ procurement
  • Euthanasia performed by 2 physicians
    neurologist
  • Euthanasia in wheelchair or bed, but in OR
  • Organ retrieval after clinical diagnosis of
    cardiac death by 3 physicians
  • Procedures performed by senior staff members and
    nursing staff on a voluntary basis

57
Procedures
  • Euthanasia procedure by overdose barbiturates,
    muscle relaxation analgesia
  • Heparine given after euthanasia kit
  • Organ procurement
  • 3 x femoral vessel cannulation (DBTL catheter)
    quick laparotomy for topical cooling (same
    time)
  • 1 x quick laparotomy for topical cooling
  • Organ allocation via Eurotransplant (allocation 4
    hrs before)
  • Transplant centers informed about the nature of
    the case and the elements of organ procurement

Organ donation after euthanasia
  • Potential ?

61
Conclusions
  • Organ donation after euthanasia is feasable
  • Strong patients wish to donate cannot be denied
  • Clear separation between euthanasia request
    euthanasia procedure organ procurement
  • High quality of NHBD-organs
  • Potential of procedure

62
Category III donors Ethical issues
  • The lack of organ through standard brain death
    procedure increases the pressure on intensivists
    to implement organ retrieval in patients for whom
    a withdrawal of care decision has been taken
  • Apprehension of neurological outcome after major
    brain injury through sophisticated MRI and EEG
    techniques will undoubtfully improve within the
    next years
  • The question of kidney and liver retrieval right
    after cardiac arrest in major brain injured
    patients according to the patients previous wish
    or at the demand of the family might arise as our
    skill to predict neurological outcome will
    improve
  • This question is particularly relevant for our
    practice since the best candidates regarding
    organ viability are neurological patients

63
Category III donors Ethical issues
  • However
  • Category 3 patients have to progress swiftly from
    withdrawal of care to asystole if organ function
    is not to be compromised.
  • Death in the circumstances of major brain injury
    is usually not rapid since other organ are well
    functioning, the very reason why the entire
    procedure is performed.
  • This is specially true at the second or third
    week when MRI can be performed without any risk
    to the patient
  • Death might have to be prompted through
    increasing sedation in an extubated patient, or
    by the administration of hypotensive agent, or
    even NMB
  • This create ethical issues much more complicated
    than those encountered in brain death
